If all of this, all the life of a stream of water, can be nothing but a pile of atoms, how much… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
If an apple was magnified to the size of the Earth, then the atoms in the apple would be approximately the size… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
There is nothing that living things do that cannot be understood from the point of view that they are made of atoms… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
Atoms are very special: they like certain particular partners, certain particular directions, and so on. It is the job of physics to… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
It doesn't seem to me that this fantastically marvelous universe, this tremendous range of time and space and different kinds of animals,… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
Poets say science takes away from the beauty of stars-mere globs of gas atoms. Nothing is "mere". I too see the stars… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
All things are made of atoms - little particles that move around in perpetual motion, attracting each other when they are a… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
All things are made of atoms-little particles that move around in perpetual motion, attracting each other when they are a little distance… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image

My rule is, when you are unhappy, think about it. But when you're happy, don't. Why spoil it? You're probably happy for some ridiculous… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share
Trying to understand the way nature works involves a most terrible test of human reasoning ability. It involves subtle trickery, beautiful tightropes of logic… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share
Mathematics is a language plus reasoning; it is like a language plus logic. Mathematics is a tool for reasoning. — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share
It is necessary for the very existence of science that minds exist which do not allow that nature must satisfy some preconceived conditions. — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share
